Students in cultures do not feel comfortable speaking out in class. a. high power distance b. high context c. achieving d. nurturing e. none of the above

I think the correct answer is A: high power distance.

The Power Distance is defined as the extent to which the less powerful members of institutions and organisations within a country expect and accept that power is distributed unequally. High power distance societies have characteristics such as: society differentiates into classes; the power is seen as providing social order; the upward social mobility is limited; resources are available to only a few and the information is localized and treasured. Therefore, it is understandable that the members of these societies are timid, submissive and not very participative, since they are accustomed to respecting and not contradicting or interrupting those who are considered an authority.
